Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 96 was photographed (810)

If you don't do things in a timely manner, you will be exhausted but get nothing!
When it comes to movies, there are "Xiaoyang Producer System" and "Xiaoyang Director System". To put it bluntly, it depends on who you follow...

Whoever pays the money, or brings in the investment, will be the one we listen to!
Then "Back to 20" is very simple...

This movie is produced by Starlight Master Control!
Shen Yan is just a screenwriter and an actor, so he must listen to Zong Shan, after all, she represents the producer.

Brother Yan just made a suggestion, she didn’t listen... so forget it!
Of course, before leaving, he still gave Zong Shan a warm hug: "Producer Zong, I'm leaving!"

“…What are your plans next?”

"Promoting my album and movie..."

Zong Shan nodded, then asked, "...I have a play here, are you interested?"

"What play?"

"It's a big production called 'Warring States'. It tells the story of Sun Bin, Pang Juan, his concubine Pang, the King of Wei, and the power struggles among the various states. The screenwriter is Mr. Shen Jie!"

Shen Jie, of course Shen Yan knows him, a top screenwriter with a lot of representative works, such as "Serious Crime Unit 6", "Live with a Smile", and later "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky"...

But his most famous work is the movie "Warring States"...

Yes, the one with Jing Tian and Sun Honglei.

'How brutal!'

In fact, this movie is just a standard bad movie - the lines are too bad, the scenery is random, the editing is sick, and the props and costumes are like a cheap drama crew...

Terrible and unoriginal...

But the publicity and promotion was too big, and when it was released, it was tied to theaters, trying to copy "Hero", making it look like a brand new Chinese blockbuster to compete with Hollywood...

As for the movie content, Shen Yan only watched the Douyin edited version...

It’s not a good show anyway!
So, I refused directly: "I have two more dramas to shoot, I don't have time for the time being..."

Fortunately, Zong Shan just said...

It doesn't mean that he is the only one.

As I said, Shen Yan is just a newcomer!
However, when Shen Yan said goodbye to the actors, Jing Tian insisted on organizing a dinner.

To be more precise, it was the wrap-up party!

Shen Yan thought she was reluctant to leave him, so he consoled her, "When the movie comes out, I'll definitely have to promote it, and then we can meet again... By the way, when will our movie be released?"

“…I think it was early December…”

Early December…

Tsk tsk, this year's Lunar New Year movies include "Let the Bullets Fly", "If You Are the One 2", and "The Orphan of Zhao"...

But in December, at the beginning of the month, this time slot is pretty good, with the only competitor being "The Laughing Man"...

The box office may exceed 100 million!
"Okay, we'll see you then!"

Jing Tian simply told the truth: "...No, I want to hear you sing "Qilin"!"

"What?"

“Just listen to the live version.”

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment: "You bought my album?"

"No... I listened to it on Kugou Music! They said you couldn't sing 'Qilin' live. 140 words a minute, too hard!"

Shen Yan almost laughed out of anger: "...No, you didn't even buy the album, and you still want to listen to the live version?"

"Can you do some..."

"Okay, cough, cough," Ana Shen cleared her throat: "Uh sama lamaa duma lamaa you assuming I'm a human, What I gotta do to get it through to you I'm superhuman Innovative and I'm made of rubbe~"

Shen Yan performed a piece of "Rap God"...

Jing Tian was shocked and it took her a long time to come back to her senses: "Is this English?"

"Yeah, Eminem's 'Rap God'..."

“Who is Eminem?”

"...a rapper from the US, pretty famous!"

Before Jing Tian could speak, Shen Yan said to her, "I'm leaving. Shi Shi is over there, give it to me!"

……

In the car, Shi Shi pretended to ask casually, "Why did Jing Tian stop you?"

“She wants to hear me sing live…”

Shen Yan did not hide anything and told Shi Shi what had just happened...

The latter nodded: "All the songs on your album are good!" "Did you buy it?"

"Of course I did. I bought 50 CDs!"

Shen Yan was surprised: "Why buy so much?"

"Give it away... They said they can give it away to fans!"

Shen Yan nodded: "Then I will ask Chen Xu to leave 500 for me, and I will give them to fans when the time comes!"

Shi Shi asked curiously, "How many have you sold?"

"We've printed an extra 5 CDs and 20 cassettes... they should have sold half of them by now!"

"Did you make money?"

“It’s definitely a profit!”

“How many copies of an album do you usually need to sell to break even?”

“Almost 10,000 tickets have been redeemed…”

Generally speaking, the production cost of a commercial CD is between 50 and 100 million, plus the costs of pressing, packaging, publicity, sales channels, etc. If all these are included, selling copies will just cover the investment.

Of course, it is not fixed. The larger the investment, the more difficult it is to get your money back!

Shen Yan is not a top artist, and the production cost of "Chasing Dreams" exceeded 300 million!
Later, when singers released songs, they basically outsourced the work to the platform: singers only needed to provide complete commercial song products and didn’t have to worry about anything else.

Making physical albums is always a loss-making endeavor. Releasing physical albums is basically a way of giving back to fans and expressing one's attitude towards music as a singer...

The reason is simple. Physical albums require a CD player or a vinyl record player.

Too much trouble.

It is very convenient to listen directly on your mobile phone or computer!

Shen Yan changed the subject: "We're going to Changsha to record Happy Camp the day after tomorrow... Be prepared!"

Shi Shi hesitated: "...I'm not very good at speaking."

Shen Yan looked at her with disdain: "With Sister Bingbing and Brother Ren Quan... I guess they won't ask you any questions..."

"…Too."

Shi Shi actually nodded seriously...

"...Didn't you hear that I was mocking your lack of popularity?"

“…I’m really not popular…”

"Okay, what's for dinner?"

"whatever…"

"Barbecue or hot pot?"

“…Hot pot!”

"Okay," and then a new question arose: "Would it be too conspicuous if we went to eat hot pot together?"

Shi Shi thought about it for a moment, then suggested, "Why not ask Pepe to come along?"

"That's fine... I'll call Chen Xu too!"

……

After the album "Chasing Dreams with a Childlike Heart" was released, Shen Yan's popularity saw an exaggerated increase!
Especially after the launch of the M-Zone advertising...

By the way, I wrote two songs for M-Zone, “My Sky” and “Proud Youth”…

The original intention was to let them choose one, and then they would choose all of them.
Of course, the endorsement fee has also increased to 500 million per year, and the contract is for two years...

M-District is so efficient that Shen Yan had just finished filming the commercial when he saw his headshot on a poster on the street - this is my territory, I have the final say!

By the way, many TV stations also aired Shen Yan’s advertisements, and the background music was “My Sky”…

A bunch of brands also began to contact Shen Yan.

Zhang Jingying's "My Dearest" has also started airing...

The lyricist and composer are both Shen Yan!

Putting aside the benefits of his surge in popularity, the key point is that many media outlets began reporting on his privacy, using the ambiguous statement "He has a girlfriend, someone in the entertainment industry!"

Then many people guessed it was Shi Shi...

After all, judging from public information, Liu Shishi has participated in all the TV series and movies starring Shen Yan!
There are no paparazzi reports yet...

After all, the most explosive news at this stage is that Ronald Cheng and Charlene Choi have publicly announced their divorce!

As soon as this news came out, it immediately sparked discussion among netizens. After all, most netizens really didn’t know that they were married!
The most famous comment: Twins are awesome, one has been secretly married for years, and the other’s photo was exposed!
However, they were still photographed eating hot pot together, shopping, and playing claw machines after eating hot pot!
